At this moment, in the inner world of the Pig-Headed Demon King

Rimuru watched the entire life story of Kruto.

Krut looked at the slime in front of him: "That lord told me that as long as I become the Pig-Headed Emperor, my companions won't die even if they are controlled by the {Hungry Ones}. Even if I'm dragged into an evil plan and become a pawn, I have no choice but to gamble. So I have to eat you. Even if you're a slime that devours everything, I can't lose."

“Devouring is my strength; you will lose,” Rimuru said.

"I devoured other monsters, ate Lord Grumeid, even ate my own kind, I cannot lose!" Krut

"This is a world where the strong prey on the weak. You lost, so you will die." - Rimuru

“I cannot lose. If I die, my people will bear the burden of sin. My sins are heavy, but it doesn’t matter. To prevent everyone from going hungry, I will endure all the hunger in the world.” - Krut

“Even so, you will still die, but don’t worry,” Rimuru said earnestly, looking at the Orc Lord, “I will devour all your sins!”

"My sins?" Krut looked at Rimuru with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, not only you, but also the sins of your fellow countrymen—I will devour them all," Rimuru affirmed.

“And the sins of your own kind, you are truly a greedy slime!” Krut cried. “Greedy one, one who devours everything, thank you for my hunger now… is satisfied.”

Rimuru looked at Kruto, whose inner world had vanished, and silently said, "Rest in my body, Kruto."

Chapter 20: The Jura Great Forest Alliance and the Jura Termpers Federation

As the sun rose, it shone on Rimuru, who had successfully devoured the Orc Lord.

Since the effect of defeating the Orc Emperor {Hungry One} had also worn off, the awakened Orc army, upon seeing Rimuru appear, completely gave up resistance. However, they were also grateful to Rimuru for freeing their king from the heavy burden of sin, so they no longer intended to rebel.

Everyone cheered as they watched the pig-headed tribe surrender.

Lu Tianyu and Rimuru, standing to the side, were caught up in the cheers of the crowd and couldn't help but smile.

Benimaru and the other Oni slowly approached. Rimuru looked at them and smiled, "It's over."

"Hmm," Benimaru replied instinctively, looking at the smiling Rimuru in front of him.

Rimuru looked at Benimaru and the others and said with a slow smile, "Our agreement was that you would be set free after defeating the Orc Emperor. You've worked hard these past few days."

Looking at the radiant and gentle blue-haired boy before her in the morning sun, Benimaru made up her mind and said, "Lord Rimuru, I have a request."

"What?" Rimuru

"Please accept our loyalty. We will serve Lord Rimuru from now on," Benimaru said firmly.

"Is that alright?" Rimuru asked Benimaru and the others with surprise. Although he already knew this from the original world, he was still very happy.

"I have no objection," said Mr. Bai.

"Meeting you is our good fortune," Cangying said with a smile. (So even a cold and handsome guy can smile, lol)

"Hehe," Zifan chuckled, lifting her two wicked breasts and pressing them against Rimuru's head, hugging him happily and saying, "I am Lord Rimuru's secretary and bodyguard, and I will never leave you."

"Until the end of our lives," Benimaru affirmed firmly.

Lu Tianyu looked at them and smiled, "Congratulations to you both, and Rimuru too! Now you don't have to worry about everyone being separated, hahaha O(∩_∩)O"

Rimuru looked at Lu Tianyu and the crowd still celebrating below: "Let's go home."

"Oh oh oh"

The day after defeating the Orc Emperor, in the Lizardmen's hall, Lu Tianyu, Rimuru, and others stood at the head of the table. The Tree Spirit Treny, the Lizardmen leader, and representatives of the Orcs and other races began discussing post-war arrangements.

"Then please welcome Speaker Rimuru Tempest and Lord Lu Tianyu, please begin," said the tree spirit Torene.

"Hey! What? Me too? Isn't that Rimuru?" Lu Tianyu, who had been quietly observing the scene, was startled when he suddenly heard his own name and quickly asked.

"You are one of the strongest men present who defeated the Orc army, and you are also a member of Lord Rimuru's family," Treyne said with a smile (with a hint of cunning).

"Tianyu, don't refuse!" Rimuru heard Lu Tianyu being called as well, and quickly pulled him into the water with him.

Looking at the expectant crowd around him, Lu Tianyu muttered, "Okay, okay, I'll do it, alright?"

"Then the meeting shall officially begin," Torene said after checking that Lu Tianyu and Rimuru were clear.

"Um, this is my first time holding a meeting like this, so please just say what you think, and we'll discuss it together afterwards," Rimuru said, looking at everyone.

"That's what I meant too," said Lu Tianyu, who had been quietly going through the motions.

Rimuru looked at the Orcs and said to everyone, "Let me clarify first, I don't intend to hold the Orcs responsible."

The representatives of the orc tribe all looked at Rimuru in surprise. Rimuru looked around and explained, "The lizardmen, who have suffered greatly from the disaster, may not be convinced. Listen to me, the reason for the invasion is famine-induced hunger. If we were in the same position, perhaps other races would have made the same choice. However, this is just a polite way of putting it."

"The law of the jungle prevails, and everyone has a responsibility depending on their position," Lu Tianyu sighed.

The lizardman leader looked at Rimuru, and as for Lu Tianyu beside him, everyone could see he was just slacking off. He asked, "Then, can we hear your true feelings?"

"I inherited all the sins of the Orcs, so come at me if you have a problem with that," Rimuru declared domineeringly.

"And then there's Rimuru. Don't forget, I'm the one who took down the Orc army, so if you're not happy about it, feel free to come and beat me up," Lu Tianyu said, hands on his hips, with a distinctly chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur) tone.

The viewers in the live stream watched as Lu Tianyu, who had just been slacking off, suddenly started acting childish and began asking questions.

"What's wrong with Tenyu?" Daigo asked.

"He's having a fit of chuunibyou," Spider-Man thought to himself (and openly) slander.

"Sigh, don't you guys think Tianyu looks adorable like this and want to take him home?" Hestia

"When will this meeting end? I want to eat meat and have a feast! I haven't eaten for three days and I'm planning to have a proper meal!" Reimu said fiercely.

"I wanted to do this when I watched anime in my past life, and now I've fulfilled that wish," said Lu Tianyu.

Regardless of the few people chatting idly, at this moment in the conference hall

The Orc representative stood up and said sincerely to Rimuru, "Please wait a moment, this just doesn't make sense."

“This is a promise I made with Demon Lord Kruto,” Rimuru explained.

"Sigh." Upon hearing that this was an agreement between their clan leader and Rimuru, the orc representative who had stood up sat down, and the other orc representatives also lowered their heads.

"I see, but that explanation is a bit cunning," the lizardman leader said hesitantly.

Rimuru glanced at the somewhat resentful lizardman chieftain and thought to himself, 'It's not so easy to accept after all.'

At this moment, Hongwan glanced at Lu Tianyu, who was still standing with his hands on his hips, clearly lost in thought. He stepped forward and addressed the lizardman leader and the other representatives, saying, "The only unchanging law that all magical beasts follow is the survival of the fittest. You should have been prepared when you decided to fight."

Rimuru looked at Benimaru, who had stood up to defend him, and asked, "Your village was also destroyed, don't you have any complaints?"

"It would be a lie to say I have no complaints, but I definitely won't embarrass myself like that again next time," Benimaru said, looking at Rimuru.

"I see, you're quite right. However, there's one thing I need to confirm," the lizardman leader asked Rimuru after reluctantly accepting the explanation.

"What is it, Rimuru?"

"How will you settle the pig-headed tribe?" the lizardman leader pressed. "Since you don't intend to punish them, will you accept all the surviving pig-headed tribe members?"

Everyone looked at Rimuru

"Indeed, there are still more than 20 Orcs, so I would like to ask everyone to help, although it may sound unrealistic. (In the original story, there were more than 15 Orcs, but this time they were all stunned by Lu Tianyu. Only a small number of Orcs died in the previous battle with Gavilu.)"

"Help, do you mean...?" The representatives of the various races looked at Rimuru with a puzzled expression and asked.

"The Lizardmen provide excellent water resources and fish, the Goblins provide shelter, our cities provide processed goods, and the Hog-headed Tribe provides labor as payment. The various races of the Jura Forest form a grand alliance, establishing a relationship of mutual assistance, and building a multi-racial, symbiotic nation."

The Orc representative looked at Rimuru with surprise and emotion, and asked him, "You...you mean you want us to join this alliance and nation?"

"You have nowhere to go, right? We'll provide you with lodging and food. Make sure you work hard and don't slack off!" Rimuru said to them with a smile.

"Yes!" the pig-headed tribe representatives all knelt down, excitedly saying, "Of course! We will work our hardest!"

The lizardman leader, satisfied, said, "Please be sure to allow us your assistance."

Rimuru looked at the silent tree spirit Treyne and asked, "Treyne, you have no objections?"

The tree spirit looked at Rimuru and said, "Alright, the tree spirit clan that I protect also provides fruits from the forest, which should currently meet the needs of the orc clan."

After speaking, Torene stood up and announced to everyone, "I, Torene, the master of the forest, hereby swear to recognize Rimuru and Lord Lu Tianyu as the new leaders of the Jura Forest. In the name of Leader Rimuru and Lord Lu Tianyu, I hereby declare the Jura Forest Grand Alliance established!"

After speaking, he knelt on one knee before Rimuru and Lu Tianyu to pledge his allegiance. Representatives of other races and the Great Demon Clan also knelt down to swear allegiance.

At this moment, Lu Tianyu, who had just finished swearing allegiance to Rimuru, looked at the kneeling crowd in front of him with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's going on? Isn't this about pledging allegiance to you? Why am I being dragged into this?"

"You're also one of the alliance leaders," Rimuru said, pulling Lu Tianyu, who had been slacking off the whole time, into the fray.

"Sigh, no, shouldn't it be the establishment of the Jura Tempest Federation? Why is the Grand Alliance still in existence?" Lu Tianyu said speechlessly, "I accept the Grand Alliance thing, but in the country, I'm just a mascot. Call me if there's danger, but you know I'm not usually here."

"No problem." Rimuru looked at the helpless Lu Tianyu and felt much better after being annoyed by Lu Tianyu's lack of effort.

"Then let's do it today, no sooner said than done. Let's go back and announce the formation of the Jura Tempest Federation, a nation belonging to us monsters, and then have a proper banquet," Rimuru said, looking at Lu Tianyu and the others.

Amidst cheers, the group began their march towards Rimuru's territory.

Chapter Twenty-One: The Establishment of the Nation and the Gathering of All

At the exit of the lizard tribe's cave, the pig-headed tribe representative stopped Red Maru and his group.

Benimaru and the others looked at him and asked, "Is there something you need?"

The representative of the pig-headed tribe bowed his head and said, "Although it's a world of survival of the fittest, hatred will not disappear. We will give the Great Demon Clan's village to..." Then he knelt down and pleaded, "No amount of atonement is enough. Although I know saying this is too lenient, please just cut off my head and forgive everyone!!"

Benimaru looked at the pig-headed representative kneeling before him and said, "After the battle, we told Lord Rimuru that we wanted to continue following him. Lord Rimuru gave us new positions. Shihan is Lord Rimuru's {Samurai} bodyguard and secretary, Hakuro is {Instructor}, Soue is {Spy}, and Shuna and Kurobei, who stayed in the village, also have positions. Then I was given the position of {Samurai General}, which is a military position. Since I have received this responsibility, I cannot get rid of useful talents."

When the representatives of the Orc tribe heard that Benimaru had forgiven them, they looked up at Benimaru and the others with gratitude.

Benimaru and the others turned around and walked towards the cave exit, saying, "If anyone is an enemy of Lord Rimuru, I will never let them go. But if you join the alliance and your nation and acknowledge him as your master, then we are not enemies."

"We dare not be their enemy. Those two beings saved us. We will follow them and will never be their enemy," the pig-headed tribe representative quickly replied.

"Then we are allies, serving the same master. Let us serve Lord Rimuru well as a way of atoneing for my sins," Benimaru said with a smile.

"I swear by the name of my father, King Krut," the representative of the orc tribe said firmly.

Watching Benimaru and the others walk away, Rimuru said to Lu Tianyu, "Benimaru is so magnanimous; I should learn from him."

"We also need to name that pig-headed tribe representative from earlier. He'll be the new leader," Lu Tianyu added.

At noon, Lu Tianyu and the others returned to Rimuru's village.

Rimuru, looking at the welcoming crowd, said happily, "We've won! We've united all the races of the Jura Forest to form a grand alliance. Next, we will establish our own monster nation, named the Jura Tempest Federation!"

"Lord Rimuru, are we really going to establish a country?" Shuna asked, looking at Rimuru.

"Yes, after all, we've subdued the Orc army of 20. I want to establish a nation where many monsters can coexist, a nation that belongs only to us," Rimuru said, looking at everyone. "Are you willing to help me?"

"Of course, Lord Rimuru!" Benimaru led everyone in their oath.

"Then let's begin preparations. I'll first name the next chieftain of the Orcs, and then I'll send messages to everyone in our alliance, inviting them to our nation's founding banquet," Rimuru instructed.
